PagerDuty and MemDeck both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of MemDeck's written reviews are positive against 25% of PagerDuty's. MemDeck also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). PagerDuty's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
